This move is just the latest in attempts to counter COVID-19 spread in areas most impacted by the current coronavirus.

“The best part of value is that if you are out, if you can not maintain the six-foot gap, you have to wear a kind of face covering, owing to recent knowledge, even though you speak as opposed to cougher and sneezing,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Center of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, tells the Fox News Morning Programm.

“It should never, however, be excluded from the supply of masks that are appropriate for health-care workers that are in true and immediate danger to get contaminated with the patients they care about.” He said, “This is an improvement, and not a substitute about physical isolation.”

Referring to news that the CDC is now considering recommending that Americans wear cloth masks in public, the former Chief Medical Officer of CDC Dr. Robert Amler told Fox News that people would “accept” it if the guidelines are approved. “I would assure you that the CDC Recommendations have been drawn out over the years, and they are formulated very thoroughly based with the best facts,” he stated. “These recommendations are not relaxed or meaningless when they leave.” Do you think the entire country should wear masks in public?

‘It’s healthy for people around you, whether or not there’s a shortage.’ The general public’s use of face masks was addressed because of the shortages of personal safety devices for health employees.

On Thursday night, President Donald Trump used the Defense Production Act to compel 3 M to boost mask production.

The order ordered acting Secretary of National Security, Chada Wolf, to “use all authority available under the legislation to procure the amount of N-95 respirators that the Administrators find appropriate from any suitable department or affiliate of the 3 M Organization.” Trump’s order was released after Jared Moskowitz, Director of the Florida Emergency Management Division told Fox News host T

“It’s all about companies who have opted not to put America first and its catastrophic consequences,” said Moskowitz.

“We’ve worked closely with the administration to do exactly what is going on, and we appreciate the authorities in the DPA to provide a structure for us to further extend the work that we’re doing in response to the global pandemic crisis,” 3 M said in a statement. “We look forward to partnering with FEMA to enforce the order yesterday.” According to statistics from Johns Hopkins, more than 261,000 COVID-19 incidents were registered in the United States on Friday morning.
